Better is subjective. Faster, newer and cheaper work out better for me. Once the machine is up and running, I don't really give a shit what is inside. So long that it performs and didn't break the bank.

I am sitting on a couch with 3 MBP plugged in and charging. My 3 and 4 year olds have iMacs in their rooms. These machines are good for what they do, but they aren't good for what I want to do. And I won't spend $2k plus with Apple ever again.

So Hackintosh it is. Newer, faster and cheaper for the same thing minus the Apple logo.
